My 2+ year old desktop, in the last few months, has gotten really loud. Fan going overdrive all the time, and *really* loud during moderately CPU/GPU intensive tasks like running a virus scan or a 2-3 year old PC game. It does have a small separate video card. I think it might just be really dusty in there or just components are dying or something because it is left running almost all of the time.
